WSDZ 1260 AM 2000 UTC 28 Dec 2020

Phased out KDUZ on 1260 kHz and heard another station down there. Turns out to be WSDZ from Belleville, IL.

WSDZ is 486 miles away and during mid-day as well so a bit of a surprise. Its a 20kW station with some daytime of the pattern sent up here, but there are other stations closer that I had expected.

Programming is Relevant Radio. ID a the top of the top of the hour gave the AM call sign and the FM translator's call sign & frequency over in St Louis (K236CS, 95.1).
